Re: Conduit enlightenment

Evolution is not needed to simply backup/restore your palm. All you need for
that is the Backup Conduit. Evolution is needed if you want to access your
address book, memos, etc. on the computer. The Backup conduit will back up
the raw address, memo, etc. files, but the evolution conduits for those are
what converts those files into files Evolution can read.

I too am curious to find out what the MAL conduit is.
